Guidance for Family Struggles

My heart feels heavy lately. My teenage son has been really distant, and honestly, it effects the whole family dynamic. He’s been struggling in school and dealing with some friends who just don't have the best influences. We’ve tried talking, but it often ends up in arguments, and I’m not sure how to support him without pushing him away more. I want him to feel safe coming to us, but it’s tough to navigate the teenage angst. On top of that, my aging parents need more help and it’s becoming overwhelming. They’ve started to have some health issues, and I’m trying to balance this with being there for my wife and our daughter too. There’s a lot happening, and I can feel the weight of it all. I’m just praying for some guidance and clarity in how to bring our family back together and support each other through this chaos. I hope we can find unity and understanding again. Any prayers for communication, patience, and some wisdom through these challenges would be truly appreciated.
